Just like Uncharted, Gears of War has been subject to talks of a live-action adaptation for as long as it's been a hit. However, unlike Sony's first-party title, plans for bringing the cover-based shooter haven't gained as much traction - until now.
According to the film's producer, Dylan Clark, fans could hear more about the Gears of War movie adaptation soon. When speaking to The Digital Fix, Clark had a few but very exciting words to share about the long-dormant film. Specifically, Clark mentioned that the movie has been his passion "for a very long time" and he believes that "very soon there will be an announcement."
Although this isn't much to go on, it's nice to hear that the studio behind Gears of War's big-screen adaptation is still interested in it.
Gears of War is one of Microsoft's biggest franchises. After being introduced in 2006, the Gears of War series has become widely considered as one of the most influential shooters of the modern era. The game was the first to emphasize cover-based combat, which has since been adopted by several other titles.
